I work at a tennis club, and I am looking at possibly changing our string supply to a different company. Not going to go into specifics, but we carry Dunlop strings and grips as of now, but just looking at other options.

1) What would you recommend outside of the big ones (Head, Wilson, Prince, Babolot)

2) What is the best way to get in contact with any of the reps of those companies, or to find if there are any reps within the area?

I was just recently promoted to run the desk at the club, so I am in charge of inventory and things like that, so I am new to this sort of thing

Big T Tennis and Mamba Tennis have posters on these forums. See if you can find their web sites (hint!) and you could also try private email / telephone calls. Disclaimer: I am not a rep for either company.

yea, I mean I was going to email some companies after more research, just didn't know if there was a place that shows what reps to contact or anything like that

Basically, I guess I'm just trying to see what Brand of string's you guys like overall. I mean I know of a lot of good string, but just of the top strings from the brands, don't know much from top to bottom.

All you need to do is look at each company's website..........you can:

1. Send an email on the "contact us" link that just about EVERY manufacturer has and ask that a rep follow up with you.

2. Call the 1800 or whatever number they provide again on their website.......just ask them to have the regional sales rep for your area contact you.

Yes there are regular trade shows but not knowing your clubs budget the cost of sending a person can be steep.

Or you can call distribution companies like CLARKE Sports Tennis or F R O M U T H Tennis ........they have large direct contracts with all the major brands and allow smaller shops and clubs the ability to acquire smaller amount of product as needed. The average club and even shop does not have the ability to commit to large orders and minimums most vendors require to set up accounts - firms like Clarke and ******* allow you to build a varied and limited stock without busting your budget.

Solinco is definitely picking up steam and is very popular at the junior and rec levels. Not to mention, they are a fantastic company to deal with. I work with them on multiple levels and have only had extremely positive experiences with them. I'd be happy to provide you an introduction if you'd like!
